Kids Should Not Be Assigned Homework By Caden P.

“Stress is just another word for Homework” - unknown.  Nobody should be stressed when they come home because they have 5 hours of homework to do.  Studies have shown that not giving kids homework reduces an average 55% of stress, and even though some kids like homework there are still more kids who don't.

Kids should not have any stress but homework gives stress.  Doing homework just wastes time to spend with family or it even just wastes time for a little game of basketball.  Homework also should be done at school because what if you were struggling on a math problem?  You would want your teacher's help, not your parents.  Even if you do ask your parents for help, they may not know the answer.  This makes you get stressed out even more because you have to wait till the next day for help.

Kids should not have homework because nobody likes having more things to do after school. Basically homework is like school at home.  This is because when you have homework it just takes up all of your time.  Instead, you could be doing fun things like sports or games. Also, homework stacks up, and up, like a brick wall. So, by the time you finish you have to go to bed.

Kids should not have homework because when parents tell you to get outside you have to say no  because your math teacher assigned too much homework.  So think about it, basically you have just rejected a good time outside doing things you love just because of how many hours and hours you spend on homework.

Some people might say that homework helps and benefits your learning. But, studies have shown that homework should not   be longer than ten minutes a day. Currently I have at least one - two hours a day. With this much homework I will never get to do other things. If kids continue to have so much homework, they could miss out on having fun. If kids have fun it reduces stress at a minimal of 64% according to “Having Fun: Why It Provides Some Of The Best Stress Relief”.  Now teachers should not give homework to kids.
